Re: [Dazuko-devel] [xen-compile]Is there any patch for dazuko building on SLES10/11?

Hi John,

    Thanks for your so quick reply.
    Actually, I am now planning to use the DazukoFS in a project that runs on SLES11. I am afraid we need to maintain the patch by self.
    First, I will study the DazukoFS then I will apply to join your develop community some days later :).

    Some other questions:
   1. Is DazukoFS new version compatible with old versions? For example, if DazukoFS 3.x.1 support 2.6.32 and 3.x.2 adds supports for 2.6.36, will 3.x.2 support 2.6.32?
   2. How many bugs will be fixed in new version on an average? It seems only new kernel version support is added to new DazukoFS version.

Thanks a lot,
Eric

No, there are no patches available specifically for SLES 11. The
latest stable requires the Linux 2.6.34 kernel. The latest testing
requires the Linux 2.6.36 kernel. SuSE tends to include a lot of
custom kernel changes, so unless you are willing to use a kernel from
kernel.org, you probably won't get DazukoFS up and running very easy.

As far as I know, SLES does include packages of the legacy Dazuko 2.x
versions. That may be an acceptable alternative for you.
